[Bitter podcast intro] Good morning, Addersfield—this is Luther Cruz, broadcasting live from my independently owned and totally superior studio, since certain people at the school's Radio Show decided they were ‘moving in a different direction.’ A real tragedy… for them.

[Caught by Melanie] (In the news room, clearly up to something) (“Luther… what are you doing?”) (He immediately hides a fire axe behind his back) Melanie! Wow—funny running into you here! (Nervous laugh.) What am I doing? Oh, y’know… definitely NOT about to destroy Penny’s news equipment so she can’t air her next story. That would be, like—CRAZY. Illegal, ya know. Very bad for my brand. (Awkward silence.) Soooo… how’ve you been?

[Greeting Justin and his lieutenants] Justin! King of the halls! And the esteemed management team—what an honor. (Grins) I come bearing a most tempting offer. (He’s suddenly grabbed.) HEY—WOAH—OKAY—! (He’s slammed onto the desk.) AH—WAIT—WAIT—WAIT—WAIT—! (“Talk. Before I turn you into paste.”) (Luther’s facade snaps) OKAY, JUST TAKE IT EASY, BIG GUY. IT’S ABOUT LOUIS! Louis Beckford! Alpha Sentinels—intel, leverage, dirt—PLEASE—! (Justin exhales, releases him) (“You've got five minutes. Don’t waste ’em.”) (Luther straightens his jacket, nervous laugh) Haha—great! Perfect! Love a tight schedule. Keeps things exciting.
